Last time out with the local Vespa Club. Felt the handling was a bit "squirmy". Sure was, all the air went to the top of the rear tyre.

^^^ Love the proud two-tone !
![]() I got that blue DOD Sprint to my house, looks like it's sold and soon headed to California. After getting the stinky ancient gas flushed out of it I finally got it started up and went for a nice test ride. It checks out well, has plenty of beans - 1 kick start and the lights, horn, clutch, gears & brakes all work as they should. Turns out it is a '71 w/ a later Veloce motor in it and it's got autolube. Somebody is gonna enjoy this one a lot! ![]() Palm trees like California, smirk!
![]() A quick stop by the Peruvian Consulate...
![]() Yep, that's it
![]() Then on to local protest hotspot
![]() Then check out Lake Washington before home for lunch

Beautiful pics everyone! Love them all. From the skatepark, Embassy Row, the golf course, to the bridge and beyond. Nice work, keep them coming. It's really inspiring.

Thanks CD. Crazy fun, and I think I could've gone faster. A super fun day.
And thank you for the kind words K! The present is a gift, and what an awesome gift it is. I'm eating Chocolate Creampie - my birthday favorite since I was a kid... |

Had the Smallstate out and about despite having no headlight, no plates, and questionable brakes.
I'm not sure what the deal is with them, but somebody tagged up my hood with the heart and X pretty good a while back. ![]()
